An Update (#1)

 


Hey youth! 

Today I'm just giving you a brief update on some things concerning WTY. 


Finding a Moral Line:

You may have noticed that the post series "Finding a Moral Line" hasn't continued since the last post. This is because I am very bad at keeping up with series. 

The series will continue, but instead of being all at once, I'm going to do them scattered around that way I don't get burnt out. 


Common Misconceptions:

Common Misconceptions (CM) has yet to go live, as you may have noticed. This is due to some technical issues I'm having. 

There is no specific date for when I intend to post the first episode, but in the mean time I will continue to record episodes for it. 

If you have any specific requests for what subjects you would like covered in it, please let me know in the comments! 


Old posts:

I have a few posts that were pre-written and never posted. They will still be posted eventually, but they are a tad outdated given the fact that the subject matters have faded from the media for the most part. 


Other socials:

I have a Pinterest and a YouTube channel for We The Youth. The channel is currently not active, but it is where CM will be posted when the time comes. I'm also thinking about doing video versions of my posts eventually, as well as some other things that are only ideas at the moment. I'll go more into that once the channel's been properly established. 


That's all for now. If you have any questions, comments, requests, suggestions, thoughts, etc., please let me know in the comments - I'd love to hear from you.


-EJ

Gina Carano Gets Canceled - and Gets a New Partnership

  Hey youth!  I imagine you likely know about the Disney+ show, The Mandalorian . And if you do, you likely also know one of the star characters; Cara Dune.  Cara Dune is the strong, independent, cliche-breaking, feminine, leading character that women want  to see. She isn't the hourglass-practically-starved-and-very-sexualized body type, she is strong, broad, muscular, and beautiful. She is independent and she is also kind and supportive of others. She's tough without trying to be a man. She isn't cocky, arrogant, rude, and doesn't make the ridiculous "what, because I'm a woman?" or "ugh men" comments. And in general, she's just a really good character.  I was thrilled when I saw her in The Mandalorian, and I was certain that for once everyone (feminists, Liberals, Conservatives, etc.) would be happy. I was sadly mistaken.  I've been wanting to find a way to incorporate my love for this character and appreciation for the actress, Gina Ca...

Why I Stopped Going to Youth Group (and Why I Started WTY)

  Welcome back to WTY! I mention the basics of why I started WTY in my Qs&As tab, but what I didn't go into was why I'm so passionate about this. And youth group has a very big part in that. For my non-Christian readers, you may be wondering "what's a youth group"? A youth group is basically all of the youth of a church (ages vary, but mine is 13-18 year olds) gathering on a day (mine is Sundays) and playing and hanging out at the church with a lesson from the youth pastor (a pastor who specializes in corralling teenagers, basically). The first part of this post is why I stopped going. The next half will be how it relates to WTY. The youth pastor was always changing My church went through three youth pastors throughout my time at youth group. Each time you got to know one, began to trust them, began to feel comfortable enough to be honest and open up like you're supposed to be able to do,   they would leave and you'd have to restart the process. It was...

Voices of Youth: A Website Just Like WTY!

    YO, guys.  I found a THING.  I've been having a hard time figuring out exactly what to refer to WTY as, how to explain my goal with it, etc.  And then one day- today actually- I was bored and googled "We The Youth", wondering what would come up.  First thing I found was something about painting murals. I was like "Welp that looks cool but that's not me" and added "blog" to the search engine. And what did I find? What did I find? I found Voices of Youth, a website that is already doing what I'm trying  to do here! DUDE. Nothing new under the sun, amiright?  Like guys, it's got a thing for you to guest post. It's got a phrase that says "for the youth and by the youth"! It covers world events, social media, human rights, abuse, cultural differences, the economy , EVERYTHING, from diverse views!   Just listen to this paragraph from their FAQ's!  "Voices of Youth is a global community for young people to learn about de...
